The present inventors have been studying the pathophysiology and clinical application of free bile acids and their glucuronide, taurine, or sulfate conjugates in hepatobiliary diseases for many years, and found that they exist in trace amounts in human serum. The present inventors have discovered that ursodeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide, which is a free form of ursodeoxycholic acid, has a higher effect of promoting bile excretion from the liver and strongly improves cholestasis than its free form, ursodeoxycholic acid.

<Usage test> Using ursodeoxycholic acid as a control drug, the choleretic effect of ursodeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide was tested using male Wistar rats (8 rats in the − group; body weight around 2503 cm) with an external biliary tract. Ursodeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide was administered to each rat by continuous infusion of 3% albumin solution through the femoral vein at a rate of 2.0 ml/hour for 1 hour. is 0.25 μm per 1009 rat body weight.

The choleretic effect was evaluated by collecting bile excreted from the liver for 40 minutes every 10 minutes after administration of ursodeoxycholic acid-3 glucuronide and measuring the increase in flow rate. In addition, some of the collected bile was prepared using silica gel (Kieselgel 60) as a carrier, a chloroform-methanol-acetic acid-water mixture (volume ratio 65:24:15:9) as a developing solution, and phosphomolybdic acid and sulfuric acid as coloring agents. Alternatively, bile acids were analyzed by thin layer chromatography using naphresorcin. In this bile acid analysis, the Rf values of ursodeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide, ursodeoxycholic acid, and tauroursodeoxycholic acid were each 0.33.
They were 0.95 and 0.35. In addition, a test of choleretic effect using a control drug, ursodeoxycholic acid, and bile acid analysis were conducted in the same manner as above. The results are shown in Table 1.

In the table, the increase in bile flow rate is determined by calculating the difference in bile flow rate between the ursodeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide administration group or the ursodeoxycholic acid administration group and the drug-free group for 40 minutes every 10 minutes after the start of administration. This was expressed as a percentage of bile flow in the drug-free group.

Furthermore, according to bile acid analysis using thin-layer chromatography, in the ursodeoxycholic acid-administered group, most of the administered ursodeoxycholic acid was conjugated with taurine in the liver and excreted into bile as tauroursodeoxycholic acid. On the other hand, in the ursodeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide administration group, it was confirmed that most of the ursodeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide was excreted unchanged into bile. Considering this fact together with the test results in Table 1 above, urtudeoxycholic acid-3-glucuronide increases bile flow much more efficiently than ursodeoxycholic acid without undergoing taurine conjugation in the liver. It is considered to be effective for cholestasis.
